The Tsugaru Shamisen Appreciation Club has entered the tournament that Umeko is sponsoring, the Matsugorou Cup. Also participating are Tanuma Mai, who has thought of Setsu as a rival since they were little, and her older brother, Tanuma Souichi. With strong competitors like Osaka's Kaji Takaomi and Fukuoka's Arakawa Ushio gathered from all over Japan, the tournament is shaping up to be a fierce battle. And now, the curtain rises on the Matsugorou Cup's group competition!
I don't know how much you can improve
if you can't even produce a decent sound.
لا أدري كم يستطيع أشخاص لا يستطيعون 
.حتّى إنتاج صوتٍ لائق أن يتحسّنوا
Ich weiß nicht, wie sehr sich
Menschen verbessern können,
No tengo ni la menor idea de cuánto
puede mejorar alguien que no sabe nada.
Eu não sei o quanto as pessoas podem melhorar,
sendo que não conseguem tocar um som decente.
Сомневаюсь, что те, кто не может нормально
сыграть, способны развиваться.
